A 1 W t THE HAMDEN HALL COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL is located on the College Highway about a half mile north of the boundary between Hamden and New Haven. The school, which stands on a hill overlooking Lake Whitney, is surrounded by athletic and recreation fields covering several acres, including a small woodland, a favorite play place. The building is a large, rambling structure which creates a friendly, home atmosphere for efficient, well lighted class rooms. It contains an adequate gymnasium for indoor sports and a large stage with complete lighting facilities which is much in demand for class and musical projects. A common living room is much used by students and faculty, and scarcely a week passes during the school year that does not find a group of parents gathered before its fireplace. HAMDEN HALL was founded in 1912 by Dr. john P. Cushing as one of the earliest of the country day schools. It had a long and successful career as a boys' school. In 1926 Dr. Herbert H. Vreeland, jr., now a colonel in the U. S. Army, became head of the school and continued in this capacity until the present Headmaster, Mr. E. Stanley Taylor, took charge in 1933. It is now coeducational and is owned and controlled by the parents of the school who are incorporated as a non-profit, tax-exempt organization. All income received is used for the maintenance and development of the school. THE school is organized in five units, each in charge of a supervisor. The PRE-SCHOOL includes the Kindergarten and Connecting Class. The PRIMARY DEPARTMENT consists of Grades One through Three. The LOWER MIDDLE SCHOOL takes in grades Four and Five. The UPPER MIDDLE SCHOOL includes the grades from the Sixth through the Eighth, organized to meet the Secondary Education Board require- ments, The UPPER SCHOOL, covering the four years of high school, is organized to meet the requirements of the College Entrance Examination Board. The enrollment is limited in order to give attention to the particular needs of the student. THE main concern of the school has always been the development and integration of the child as an individual. All school activities are planned and carefully coordinated for the accomplishment of this end. Instruction is carried on in small groups. The school program is developed on the principle of a well rounded day. This means that the school balances class room instruction with a noon luncheon and rest and an afternoon period of social activities, sports, and recreation. The pupil is guided and aided by the faculty not only in his studies but in his recreation and social contacts Page Six with his fellows. With such an organization it is possible to give careful attention to character development and to the physical, social, and mental well-being of each student. Every effort is made to help all members of the school to find satisfaction in work well done and in a simple, friendly, Christian way of life. THE art work or creative work is closely integrated with the social science studies, and especial instruction is given in the techniques needed. The fundamental purpose behind the work of the music department is to bring out, develop, and guide the love of and feeling for music which is inherent in every child. Each group in the school has regularly scheduled periods each week for music in addition to the voluntary glee club and orchestra. The work in French begins in the early school years with songs and games and develops through simple reading and composition to formal instruction in the middle and upper schools. THE school recognizes that recreational, social, and aesthetic training is of equal importance with the more traditional subject matter, and should be made a definite part of the experience of all pupils. Opportunity is given to learn the fundamentals of the more organized sports and of many informal games. There is a well-developed schedule of intra-mural contests. Both boys and girls at various school levels have many opportunities to play against teams from other schools. Dramatics is an important school activity, and pupils at nearly all levels have opportunity to participate. In recent years Hamden Hall has produced with great success the Shakespearean plays, As You Like It and Romeo and Juliet , and the operettas, Mikado and Pinafore . THE students in the college preparatory department publish THE HAMDEN HALL PERENNIAL PINE, a year book which contains contributions from pupils in most of the departments of the school. A program of rhythms is offered from the nursery school through the fifth grade. For all classes above the fifth, opportunity is provided for social dancing under excellent leadership, these classes being voluntary. Clubs such as rifling, student editing, photography, cooking, stamp collecting, nature work, sewing, metal and woodworking, give outlets for many interests. Useful and popular adjuncts to the school are the Brownie organization for the girls of the lower school and the Cubs for the boys. A number of these activities are held in the Log Cabin on the school grounds. In order to be of service to the community in this World War, many students have enrolled and completed training under faculty supervision at Hamden Hall as First Aiders and Canteen Aiders of the Red Cross, and as messengers and airplane spotters in Civilian Defense. Every boy and girl has the opportunity of entering into these extra- curricular activities, thus gaining self-confidence and experience of value in later life. -I THE WAITING STATION Page Seven THE country day school aims to afford almost all of the advantages of the boarding school and at the same time has the added virtue that the pupils live at home, the family life is not disrupted, and the teachers and parents may work in closest harmony to secure the most desirable results in the development of every child. Effort is made to motivate the activities of the lower school through the interest and creative instincts of the children. By such a procedure a maximum of self-control and initiative is developed, and there is a marked absence of strain. The result is that the pupils demon- strate a spirit of happiness and of good will towards each other, the faculty, and the school as a whole. THE members of the faculty have been selected because of their particular qualifications to put into practice the fundamental philosophy of the school, their sympathetic under- standing of the problems faced by growing boys and girls, their training, and personality. They are alert to recognize and to guide any creative tendency on the part of the indi- vidual pupil, to help him to find himself, and to deal with his limitations as well as his success in a constructive way. HAMDEN HALL is a member of the Educational Records Bureau and ranks high with other private schools in the achievement of its pupils. The results of the Metropolitan Achievement and Cooperative Tests have been very gratifying in all departments. The scholastic standards of the upper middle school are those of the Secondary Education Board, of which the school is a member, and the standards of the upper school are those of the College Entrance Examination Board. Incidentally, the work done by the Eighth Grade at Hamden Hall has been recognized by colleges and other preparatory schools as meeting the requirements and standards of the first year of college preparatory work, and the work of the Preparatory Department of Hamden Hall is designed to fit the students for the colleges of their choice. It is approved by the Connecticut State Board of Education, the New England College Entrance Certificate Board, the United States Department of Education in Washington, D. C., and is accredited to colleges admitting by certificate. THE success of the program at Hamden Hall is evidenced by the fact that in recent years graduates of the school have not only been accepted by such colleges as Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology, Yale, Cornell, Oberlin, Swarthmore, Rensselaer, Vassar, Smith, Wellesley, Barnard, and Mount Holyoke, but also have been able to maintain honor grades in these institutions. THIS spring six Seniors, in competition with a large number of boys from other schools in this district, successfully passed the V-5 Naval Aviation examinations. As cadets these boys are granted the privilege of continuing their studies in colleges at the expense of the United States Government. Page Eight 1943 Class Prophecy In June, 1963, the Class of 1945 had its fourth reunion. We have been fortunate to get the class together once every five years, besides, it gives the boys a chance to get out of the house. As I walked into the reunion room, the din was similar to the noise which used to issue forth from the Senior Room at that happy time, recess. From the far corner of the room the mellifluous strains of Fouser's First Symphony were evoked from a con- cert grand by the nimble fingers of the maestro himself. Our own William Core Duffy, and his lovely co-star, Elizabeth Duncan, now appearing in the Broadway hit, Is This Life??? , were standing at Fouser's side, turning pages. Lewis Rashmir, looking tanned and well-groomed, was arguing vociferously with Carolyn Bushell about the South American market-in fluent Spanish, of course. Lewis has made quite a name for himself in engineering, his main ofiices being in Caracas, Venezuela. Butch is now managing editor of a Buenos Aires newspaper. Over in another corner George Levine and Charles Berlepsch were disputing the superiority of the Clark Y airfoil to that of the Davis No. 5 for a new flying wing. Howard Nielson was listening intently to these two aeronautical experts, although his specialty is atoms. While working at the Walla Walla Institute he has devised a highly specialized machine for collecting atoms once they are split. Working near them at a small table is Betty Christensen. Someone told me with baited breath that she had just finished trisecting an angle, and was about to square a circle. At the table Bettie Barnes, now a famous dress designer and known in this field as Lily Dache-Hund , was conversing with Phyllis Bellin, whose Fifth Avenue Shoppe would like to obtain exclusive rights to Bettie's designs. Beside her I recognized Harriet Mack in her Navy Nurse's uniform talking to Lt. Commander Robert A. Neumann, U.S.N. I'll wager they were talking shop. From the other end of the couch I heard a familiar giggle and turned to find Hudas Schwartz chuckling to herself over one of my cartoons. I draw these for relaxation after a hard day's work at INTERNATIONAL AIRWAYS, INC., where I am first vice- president. Hudas seemed to be enjoying her time off from her job as assistant to Dr. Gallup in the Vital Statistics Department. Then my ears caught the sound of a Southern accent which could belong to no one except Elaine Cooke. She and Beatrice Brodner were discussing their positions as secretaries on the Stock Exchange. At this moment a colossal roar interrupted the conversations and shook the pillars of the Duffy Virginia mansion where we were assembled. I rushed outside just as the archaic form of Fred Colburn's Model A chugged up, smouldering, to the curb. Fred jumped out and assisted Dawn Lytle to the ground. The two produced various wrenches, screw drivers, an Edna Wallace Hopper Beauty Pack, and went to work-on the car, of course. Incidentally, Fred was offered several thousand dollars by the Smithsonian Institute for the antique, but Fred claimed it was priceless seeing that when he asked the ash-man how much the latter would pay for it, the ash-man replied, It's priceless! Fred carries Dawn around with him to assist in the numerous repairs necessary from time to time. After the Duffy's butler had served all that was in the ice-box and the last coke had been consumed, the classmates sardined themselves into Fred's ancient Ford and, after Fred had lit the gas headlights, we were off in a cloud of dust.

BEATRICE BRODNER HUDAS SCHWARTZ BETH CHRISTENSEN BETH DUNCAN GEORGE FOUSER HARRIETT MAKIK PHYLLIS BELLIN Page Seveuleeu Class Will The Class of Nineteen Hundred and Forty-Three, finding itself burdened under the weight of sundry acquisitions thought by itself to be requisite to the enjoyment of the ephemeral magnificence inherited by it, having attained its Seniority, does dutifully and conscientiously bequeathe and apportion the residue of its sybarite tastes to those deemed fit to be recipients thereof. We do allot: To Rosamond Hammer and Betsey North: The Senior Closet, as a safe place of refuge. To Victor Anderson: The remaining Hamden Hall electrical appliances to rearrange . To Bob Dann: A Webster's Dictionary, because we know he doesn't really know all those big words. To joan Peugeot: Butch's vitality. To Donald Fouser: Dave Miller's title of Man-about-Town To Howard Lackman: George Fouser's repertoire of excuses. To Shirley Kjeldsen: Beatrice Brodner's collection of lipsticks. To Dorothy Harris: Betty Christensen leaves her favorite bus-driver, Dutch. To Peggy Wilson: Butch's private notebook, containing her secret formula for sonnet writing. To Dorothy Solakian: a set of hair curlers, that her hands may be free for more utilitarian purposes. To Mark Rashmir: a number 17 coupon so that he may buy some shoes to replace the ones worn out in search of ads for the year book. To Charlie Sloatman: Charlie Berlepsch's pacifism. To joan Kelly: Dawn Lytle's alarm clock. To Rosamond Hammer: George Fouser's seat on the 10:00 a.m. bus from Branford. To Donald Fouser: Bob Neumann's sox appeal. To Dorothy Solakian, to replace her limpid orbs: Beth Duncan's B. B. Eyes . To Buddy Kelly: a baseball bat to facilitate business matters with his classmates. To joan Benson: A bomb sight so she won't miss any more. To Robert Murdock: Bill DuEy's harem. To Dr. Froehlich: a dictionary of English Slang. To Mrs. Bogue: a piggy bank, in which to keep the loot extorted by the Freshmen. To Mr. Sproule: A book on psychology. To Mrs. Donaldson: A class of mutes to replace this year's bacchanalian kiddies , To Mr. Wanning: The Senior's thanks for being our scrapegoat. To the Faculty: A new soundproof Inquisition room. And finally, to the junior Class, we leave: The fun of the Senior Class parties, our unbalanceable budget, the Senior horseshoe, the debts from the Perennial Pine, and the assurance that Lewie's desk will be bolted and sealed, that they the inheritors may never be tempted to make Pandora's mistake. In witness whereof the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Forty-Three sets its hand and seal at Hamden, in the County of New Haven, this thirty-first day of March, in the year of Our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred and Forty-Three.

Cushing Prize Fund was established by the Alumni who attended the Hamden Hall Country Day School during the administration of Dr. Cushing. This award is made each year by the vote of the faculty and student body on the basis of character, scholarship, good fellowship, service, loyalty, and appreciation of the ideals of Hamden Hall. The prize which is announced each year during the commencement exercises was awarded in 1942 to Irene E. Larson, now at Skidmore College. Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute each year awards medals for proficiency in mathematics and science to students of selected secondary schools. The award is made to the young man in the graduating class who has done the best work in mathematics and science throughout the preparatory course. This award, which is made during the commencement exercises, was granted in 1942 to John Rasch, now at Cornell University.

While in training the girls have had talks on nutrition by Mrs. Ahlberg and on public health and sanitation by Erick Moore. They have served two excellent dinners at the school and two teas at the Hamden Red Cross Center. On Friday, January 15, these canteen girls were graduated to full aides: Peggy Wilson, Rosamond Hammer, Dorothy Solakian, Shirley Kjeldsen, Beatrice Brodner, Joan Kelly, Helen Fox, Joan Rice, Bernice Neumann, Betty Christensen, Mary Condon, Sally Godwin, Betsey North, Phyllis Bellin, Marilyn DeWolf, and Miss Young. Mrs. Taylor was our capable leader, with Miss Young as her assistant and Betty Christensen as captain of the group. Acfiviiy Program For many years the pupils at Hamden Hall have shared in taking care of many small jobs usually termed work but since it is done in the best of good company can be more adequately called happy activity. At ten minutes after three of any school after- noon the school suddenly becomes a whirlpool of flying mops and brooms. Out of all this bustle and rushing around our ideal is to find the entire school building swept and dusted and each child able to check with himself and say, There, that is done . We hope it is. Anyway we have a good time participating. Page Twenty-One Boys' Spor'I's VARSITY SOCCER This year the boys' soccer team, captained by Charles Berlepsch, had a short but enjoyable season. Due to the curtailment of driving, many of the usual games were cancelledg however, two games were arranged with Hillhouse High. The slightly superior Hillhouse team edged us out by the narrow margin of 3-2. In the second game we met with the same results. Those on the team were Captain Charles Berlepsch, Victor Anderson, Howard Lackman, Bob Neumann, Charles Sloatman, Howard Nielson. Bill Duffy, George Fouser, Dave Miller, Lewis Rashmir, Fred Colburn, Bill Matthies, and Stanley Simons. The able direction and excellent coaching of Mr. Edward D. Small of Arnold College was appreciated by all the boys. JUNIOR FOOTBALL Under the competent direction of Mr. Peter Tileston the junior Football Team had a very successful season this year. Hamden Hall conquered such formidable rivals as the Spring Glen Club, Foote, and Putnam schools, but suffered, at Cheshire, a heart- breaking defeat with a score of 21-20. The members of the team were: Captain Clifford De Wolf, Larry Freeman, Don Fouser, Buddy Kelly, Richard Hammond, Bruce Burdge, John Baitsell, Bob McGrath, Douglas Neumann, Richard Powelson, Bill Trombley, Herbert Carlson, Hamilton Barhydt, Eugene Moore and Bob Bretzfelder. The manager was john Dowman. Page Twenty-Two Girls' Sports VARSITY HOCKEY The Girls' Varsity field hockey team with Carolyn Bushell as captain played the Day School twice last fall. The following were on the team: Captain Carolyn Bushell, Barbara Miller, Dorothy Harris, Bettie Barnes, Hudas Schwartz, Elizabeth Duncan, Marilyn DeWo1f, Shirley Kjeldsen, Harriett Mack, Nancy Mack, and Marion Teasdale. An excellent junior Varsity Hockey Team, whose members will undoubtedly con- tribute toward a successful 1943 season, played one game with the Day School. The team was as follows: Captain Elaine Lackman, Barbara Stevens, Teddy Bergeron, Arleen Bamberg, Ann Rademacher, Helen Fox, Marilyn Shearer, Emily Perrins, Mary Condon, Emma Lou Roberts, and Sally Godwin. Much credit for the successful season is due to the excellent coaching of Miss Betty Eldridge and Mrs. Virgil McNeil. With the coming of spring our thoughts turn toward baseball. The girls in the College Preparatory Department are hoping for an enjoyable and successful season. GIRLS' BASEBALL Page Tufenty-Three Dramafics Ni As You LIKE IT Two notable dramatic performances were presented on the Hamden Hall stage in the past year. They were the traditional Christmas Pageant and the eagerly awaited Shakespearean play, As You Like It . On December 18th the Christmas Pageant was given for the school and invited guestsg in the evening it was repeated for the Children's Center. The Speaking Angel was portrayed by Bettie Barnes, while the solos of the three kings were sung by David Miller, Victor Anderson, and George Fouser. Bill Duffy, Howard Nielson, and Charles Sloatman impersonated the shepherds. Betty Christensen took the part of Mary, and Fred Colburn was joseph. Robert McGrath interpreted the Man with Graing john Baitsell, Man with Goldg Elizabeth Tracy, Girl with Flowers, Ralph Aussiker, Boy with Lamb. The Girls' Glee Club, trained by Miss Ruth Frischkorn, formed the Angel Choir. Vocal solos were sung by Elizabeth Cureton and Joan Benson. The pageant, which carries a beautiful message in singing and the spoken word, was as enthusiastically received by those who had seen it many times as by those who saw it for the first time this year. April 30th and May lst saw As You Like It presented by the high school and Eighth Grade. Under the brilliant direction of Mrs. George Baitsell, an abundance of talent was combined with a great deal of hard work to produce a creditable Shakes- pearean play. Howard Nielson as Orlando played opposite Claire Leader'who gave a spirited and sensitive portrayal of Rosalind. Carolyn Bushell did Celia. The character parts of Jaques and Touchstone were taken by Bill Duffy and George Fouser. Harriett Mack, who did the country wench, Audrey, and George Levine, who played the simple and rustic William, were a source of amusement to the audience. The Duke was por- Page Twenty-Four trayed by Charles Sloarmang his brother, Duke Fredrick by Lewis Rashmirg and Oliver by Bob Dann. Phebe and Silvius, languishing in love, were done by Peggy Wilson and Donald Fouser. David Miller as Amiens, coupled fine acting with a charming bit of vocal work. Mrs. Jay Edwards, accompanied by Mrs. Alfred Boylen, directed the incidental music for As You Like It . The costuming and staging of both productions were directed by Mrs. E. Stanley Taylor, assisted by Mrs. George Pierpont. TOUCHSTONE AND AUDREY Page Twenty-Fire Social Aciivilies A picnic supper, held at the home of Headmaster and Mrs. E. Stanley Taylor, opened the school year. The picnic is an annual fes- tivity at which old students and faculty are introduced to the new students. The group had a de- lightful time around the terrace fireplace playing games and sing- ing songs. On October 30th the Seniors held a Halloween party as the first social event in the school. By joining in the games, dances, and refreshments, the students 'W' became better acquainted. Customarily an afternoon dance is held at the close of the fall term. This year on December l7th the students gathered in the auditorium to dance and exchange Christmas cards with each other. Later in the afternoon they joined in singing carols. On january 29th, in spite of the blizzard and difficulties of transportation, the junior Class sponsored a dance for the high school. The motif was winter sports, with bob-slcds, skiis, snow-shoes, and skates adorning the walls. Music was furnished by Bob Wxisstiiig and his orchestra. Under the guidance of the chairman, Victor Anderson, the following committees served: refreshments, Dorothy Solakian, Rosamund Hammer, -loan Peugeotg orchestra. Robert Dann, Betsey Northg transportation and finance, Bill Matthies, Howard Lackman, Shirley Kjeldsenq decorations, Joan Kelly, Peggy Wilson, Charles Sloatman. It was a gala affair and everyone agreed that the zero weather and snow-drifts only added to the gaiety. A Spring Informal, given on May 7th by the Freshman and Sophomore classes, was the second big dance of the year. Those serving on the committees were skillfully directed by the two chairmen, Dorothy Harris and Teddy Bergeron. Music was furnished by records and a program of mixed dances and refreshments made the evening successful. In the past, the junior Class has given the high school a picnic in honor of the Senior Class. This year it will be held at the Pine Orchard home of Mrs. Virgil McNeil in the last week of May. There will be the ceremony in which the Juniors present the Seniors with amusing gifts, followed by swimming, badminton, baseball, and croquet. june 4th is the day of commencement and, as usual, a Senior Prom will be held in the evening when the two graduating classes, Senior and Eighth Grade, will be honored. The hall will be decorated with daisies in accordance with the Hamden Hall tradition.

The Cabin boasts a new bird-house made by our Denner, Tom Jennings. Several Cubs have become interested in airplanes, and many of them have completed models of current aircraft. Members of the Cub Pack are: Mark Rashmir, Robert Jayne, John Goggins, Ray Benson, Henry Osterweis, Henry Edwards, Tom Jennings, Philip North, Frank Blakeslee, and Marvin Beller. The Hamden Hall Brownie Pack, Troop 84, has been very active this year under the direction of Mrs. Neely Turner, Brownie Leader. As the main function of the Troop is to further interest in Girl Scouts, much attention has been focused on preparing the Brownies for Intermediate Scchsbg. At the annual Fly-Up this spring the following Brownies received their wi s 'andfare ftsady to become Intermediate Scouts: Carolyn Pierpont, Mary Lou McNei , Sally Corbett, Anne Perkins, and Maude Pickands. Other Brownies are: Elizabeth Tracy, Gillian Forrest, and Barbara Wells.

PINAFOREH Shortly before the spring vacation the Junior Student Government presented H.M.S. Pinafore . This rollicking operetta gave evidence of much talent in the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Grades of Hamden Hall. Hamilton Milroy, as Admiral Joseph Porter, was as admirable an admiral as ever was in the British Nahoy . Captain Corcoran, Terry Morehouse, commanded a ship whose most prominent crew member was played by Jack Curtis as Dick Deadeye. Corcoran's daughter, the belle of the ship, was portrayed by Catherine Petrelli, while Frank Blakeslee took the role of Ralph Rackstraw. Annebet Richardson played the vendor of ribbons and sweetmeats, Little Buttercup. It is definitely agreed by all that the junior Student Government deserves three cheers and one cheer more for a fine performance. Much of its success must be credited to the careful direction of Mrs. E. Stanley Taylor and Miss Ruth Frischkorn. CHiLDREN's NATIVVN PLAY The Lower School-including the Kindergarten, First grade, and Connecting class, gave its Christmas Pageant at its own special assembly on December 17.

Page Thirty-Three Hamden Hall Personalifies Mrs. Comiskey has more years to her credit than anyone else at Hamden Hall, having been here since it was founded by Dr. Cushing thirty years ago. She has fascinating tales to tell about the school in the days of the Cushings and Vreelands, and a fund of recollections about the students who have come and gone, some to return again as instructors. We hope that such a loyal and faithful friend of the school Wlieiievei' there is a job to be done requiring enthusiasm and precision, be it handling tickets for a benefit or pushing a Red Cross Drive, Mrs. Moody is the natural inheritor. She is a vigorous supervisor of the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Grades. Her fine sense of impartiality and justice has left an indelible impres- sion upon the minds of her former students whom she has guided may have many more years to spend at Hamden Hall. during her sixteen years at Hamden Hall. In the person of Mrs. Taylor, we have had before us in our years at Hamden Hall the line example of one who, no matter what the undertaking might be, lends herself whole-heartedly to the cause, She has given unstintingly of time, thought, and energy to Hamden Hall activities and enterprises. from the smallest child in the school to Nine years ago Miss Andrews came to Hamden Hall as assistant to Mr. Taylors secretary. A year later she took over the entire responsibility. Ever since she has held an indispensible position in Hamden Hall, for as all paths lead to the oflice, so do most questions to Miss Andrews. Everyone who has been in the school for even a short time recognizes the rare combination of her friendly smile and extraordinarily accurate memory for details- Her influence is felt the graduating class. the latter most vital in the functioning of the School. Pugrf 'l'hirlj'-Four The quietly constructive manner of Mrs. Pierpont makes itself felt in the pre-school. For six years our youngsters have been so fortunate as to be guided by one whose kind and reassuring smile is a true indication of her sincere attitude to her work. To Mrs. Pierpont belongs credit for doing so many unseen things necessary to keep life running smoothly at Hamden Hall. D. :A if L px .P Fa pg. if? El' gf f is , a 1-F ' K K A u ..l MT ka-U .

J, Q 1.4, 1 FAITH If the qualities with which God graces men were like flowers and were blooming in a garden in all their glory, and I were given the gift of picking one, I would walk among them very slowly, stepping I would bend and gently touch the flower of friend- ship and sense its intoxicating fragrance. I would admire the crimson blossoms of courage and caress the snow-white blooms of hope. But for mine, to be mine, forever, I would pick the modest, blue, little flower of faith as a companion for life. It seems to contain in its bloom all the other gifts blended into one. It makes one forget small and potty things. Blessed with it, one walks through darkness, sorrow, and pain, unbroken and with a smile. It helps one to Vorget and forgive. Faith does not always ask for proof. It trusts. Without it no friendship could flourish. It is faith that brightens the light in a childls eyes when he looks up to his mother. It is faith that braces a dying man. It is faith that seals the mutual confidence of young lovers. It is faith that has been, and is the eternal fountain-spring of all' religions. It makes a saint of a sinner. It is one of God's greatest gifts to mankind. The world would be dreary, cheerlcss, and soulless without it. So let me walk through life with faith in myself, in my fellow beings, and in God. Dorothy Solakian - '44 LIFE BEGINS LGAIN In the spring the streams, once frozen g ' awake to run and tumble over the fertile ills and richer valleys. Each pussy-willow pushes its way out of the bud that has been sheltering it during the long, icy winter. Slowly, but surely the tiny erocuses burst forth to add their bit of color to the green landscape. L11 of the trees show their splendid dresses of young, green buds to the world. The tall, white birches with their feethery buds look like fairyland. Finally comes the day when the first cheery notes of the robin break forth upon the still morning air. His heart in his exuberant little breast beats quickly as he hops from limb to limb of a sheltering hemlock and trills cheer- fully for sheer joy. Even the people who have stayed in their homes hugging the warmth of their fires all winter leave their houses to walk through the budding woods. The mayflowers and the dark blue violets, with here and there a solemn Jeck-in-the-Eul- pit make a beautiful colored carpet along the edge of the brook in honor of Spring, who comes with new life and hope.

Averell Carter G-re de I, A SURPRISE When we were in Vermont this sumaer, I decided what I would give my sister for her birthday which is in December. It would be a nice little doll, and I would make clothes for it. Soon after we came home from our vacation, Mother and I went down town to get a doll. Of course there were not many rubber dolls, and most stores didn't have any at all. While we were in Woolworth's, I suddenly noticed a large doll that didn't cost too much. I changed my mind at once and decided to buy it instead of a smaller one 0 My sister had to start to school earlier in September than I did, and she had only to go in the afternoon. So every day, as seen as she left the house, I would go upstairs to the guest room and sew for the new doll. I had no patterns some myselfs The first day I made a so I had to make bathrobe out of some flannel that Mother had given me. I also made a jacket with a heed ffstened on it. Then I cut it out and had it ready to sew. The next day I finished it. ' Mother had a carton of old scraps of cloth, and she said I could use some of it for dell clothes. I found a rather narrow strip of cloth like some pa- jamas I used to have. So I made a pair of two-piece pajamas for the doll. Then I started a blanket made with squares and fastened together with button-hole stitch. Next I made a blouse, but I didn't have time to make a skirt before my school started. I decided to make the and give it and the wrapped up in paper The night before stairs and took the skirt during Christmas vacation blouse later. The doll was and hidden in the store room. my sister's birthday, I went up- doll out and put her clothes in a little box. There were also some cardboard hangers which I had made. After we had gone to sleep, Mother came in tho room and put the doll on the foot of my s1ster's bed. lwhen she awoke in the morning she was very surprised and happy. The doll was named Jessie Jean.

There are small plaques in the elevators of a cer- tain hospital which readgnwe are trying te make ser- vice a privilege to those who serve and a pleasure to those who are served, This is the motto of men and women who day and night,untiringly,aro giving their all to the service of humanity. Service is the means of expressing love,gratitude, courage,fa1th,friendship,honer,and loyalty. As such it is the cause for true happiness. This thought is beautifully expressed in a ceremony of the Camp Fire G:Lrls,in which one readsg We glorify work because it is through work we serve and are happy. We work to win, to cenquer,to be mastersgwe work for the joy of working and because we are free.n Usually work is toil, and yet it is self-sntisfy-- ing tee. I do a better job because extra effort does -something for my self-respect. Is there any joy to cpmpare to that of a task or project well done? How 'many of my vorks,how much of my life can I look back on and criticize honestly and still tell myself that 1 is good? Have I carried myself out in that assignment in a manner worthy of myself, so as to make myself worthy of higher service? Only in a free nation can service be so freely and gladly given. Such unselflsh service is given and great sacrifices are made for the love of God and Man. This is characteristic of great nations today. Joan Kelly '44 t Summer Summer glides in from over the hills As winter sneaks away, One hears the call of the whippoorwill Each eve at the close of day. Summer glides in and strews dew at dawn, Brightly sparkle the drops as she skims o'er the lawn, Butterflies glide and soar about, Robins go darting in and out. Summer glides in with her gowns to unfoldg Foliage is dense and green, All scattered about are blossoms of gold, And the grass is fresh and clean. Summer glides into the huge, green trees, And through them whistles a soft, clear breeze The birds are singing all the day, And everyone is bright and gay. Clifford F. Wolf - '46 Fanoies To a small cottage Just over the way A young maid goes trudging At the end of each day. I know not her name, Yet still at her sight A bright ray of sunshine Softly steals through the night. Bernice Neumann - '45 TIMELY THOUGHTS ON A WRISTWATCH Recently I was given a good-looking wrist- watch by my parents. In the first flush of owner- ship I was elated because I was under the natural impression that I had received something which would really help me to spend my time more efficiently. Unfortunately, I was soon disillusioned. Instead of a trusty servant, I had received a small monster, an ogre which was to cause me to miss innumerable busses, trains, and appointments. Indeed, no sooner had I fastened it lovingly about my wrist than it was set upon by pixiesg in short, it stopped. I smiled encouragingly at itg I juggled it. Silence. I coaxed, I pleaded, I ranted, I raged. Perspiretion appeared in desperate droplets on my forehead. I felt myself growing weak, when suddcnl a fiendish idea overtook me. Cunningly, I slipped the watch from my wrist, glanced cautiously into the hall, inhaled sharply, lifted it above my head, and dropped it to the floor. A loud, indignant ticking assured me in no un- certain terms that my experiment had workci. Since then I have used all accepted methods of resuscitation, and some hitherto unknown, to revive my faint-rzarted time- keeper. Such unscientific procedures as placing it in the jam of a much-used door for half an hour, or simply grinding it under my heel, have produced excellent re- sults. If nothing else prevails, overnight immersion in a glass of water frequently does the trick. For the edification of watchmakers in general, may I add that, in my opinion, the average watch of to- day is encumbered by many superfluous organs. Since in my possession, mine has strewn sundry springs, coils, wheels, oogs, and other of its intimate ninnardsn indis- criminately about the house. Yet it ticks its spasmodic way through life. Moral: Use an hour glass. Bill Duffy - '45 M ,. . - wry 'vi' w if Qf15i' 5' ' 1 -'Sw .. A '1'Z.'f? -X H' 'Y- 'J'-. 'LJQ,:K I.

Harold Mazurd, no doubt you've heard, Thinks up things if anyone can. 'Twas a night of dire and mystic desire The full moon shone on high, And three sisters bold, through the vapors cold, Shone in the midnight skyg While the clouds went rolling by. A werewolf was out, there is ne'er a doubt, In the silence of the nightg The people he'1l meet out on the street Will shriek and moan in fright. He steals through the street of the darkened town By the eerie full moon's light! Every door was barred: the police on guard With naught to do but waitg While the world all slept and the shadows crept The troopers stayed up lateg Suddenly they saw a shadow Steal through the alley gate. There was a shout: three shots rang And then they shot again. cut, The bullets whizzed through the midnight blue, And there was a ery of pain. The police rushed up to the scene, The werewolfs death was plain.

Lee Herrington Grade III NIGHTMARES My brother told me never to look at the moon when I was going to bed. I did,one night. Later, when I was sleeping, I get up and went out of my door. I walked down to the stairway and tumbled down. I woke up seared out of my wits. My father and mother heard the noise end came running down the stairs.

It's hotln I Andy Kopkind Grade II ON WRITING A LETTER The very idea of writing a letter sends chills of antipathy up and down my spine. AB a result I try to delay answering a letter as long as possible. This is easily done by getting all set to write and then Quickly finding an excuse to do something else. I ad- mit letters are fun to get, but they do accumulate so easily. After about a third message from an irate friend demanding in no uncertain terms to know why I haven't answered, I'm forced to give up, admit my defeat, and start thinking about writing. Having thought about this letter a sufficient length of time, I pick the day for the actual writing. I get all settled, then realize I haven't paper and envelopes that match. However, the first difficulties are duly overcome. I'm all prepared at last - paper, ink in pen, blotter - completely ready to answer. How foolish of me to think that the hard part was over: it has just been reached. There's that ominous whiteness stretching blankly below the HDear--N. Let's see now. What on earth can I possibly write about to her? CI wonder what that smooth tune is that UBingU is crooning on the radio! Heavens! None of that -- now, what to say. I'll have to start with one of those weak, feeble excuses explaining why I haven't written. After rapidly scribbling the insipid apologies, I eagerly scan the paper to see if that staring whiteness doesn't seem lessened a little. It's no goody the pure oolorlessness is only intensified by the little concentra- tion of black at the top of the page. Well, probably I could write about the movie I saw last week. Suddenly I realize that I'm writing easily and faster, faster. The movie episode is finished and now I dash on about the hockey game, my Valentine present, school today, and the play we're going to Hive. Golly, I haven't any room left to close the letter. Now what shall I do? I guess it can be sorunohed up all right in the bottom corner here. There, that's right. Now the envelope is all addressed and sealed. That really wasn't so painful after all. r.. ,. -. v .', , 4 I ... . 1 A n l . 4 u rn - - ' I s 1 .. 3- -' V I- -.. .,. ' ,I ' ' . 5 1 . 5 Q 4 .f l 5. , . - . . s ,.:Q ..,.w -.

The responsibility for the continuation of our friendship rests solely on her shoulders. I have done my part. This triumphant feeling accompanies me exuberantly to bed and continues pleasantly through the following day. It is a doomed sen sation, however, for I discover that I have received another letter in the afternoon mail that will be added to my unanswered accumulation ---- I'm right back where I started from.

Peggy Wilson '44 COLORS I watched the sunset's changing hues, Like the palette that some painter holds To mix his purples with the blues, And the silvery grays with the golds, The shades melt and blend into reds and yellows, They stretch and shrinkg The keen, bright scarlet that mellows Into a glorious orange and pink. Then all the tints grow duller and duller, And suddenly they fade away, Until sky and air are all one color-- A molten, ashen gray. I bewail the sun's declining, His rays like a broken ropog But already the first star is shining-- Why, it's the Star of Hope.

Hamilton Barhydt - '45 THE AM RICAN FARM R He presents quite a sight, this American far- mer, as he trudges wearily in from the fields. The sinking sun silhouettes the man and his horse against the darkening sky. His long, gawky legs stretch forth toward the barn, and the horse quickens his pace, knowing what lies ahead. On closer inspection, the clear blue eyes of this workman of the soil manifest a sharp contrast to the deeply tanned, weather-beaten face with its streaks and heavy lines. The dusty overalls hang limply from his shoulders, end his heavy brown shoes leave imprints after every step. He is a persevering man, this farmer, as all in his oc- cupation must be, up at daybreak and working until sunset, doubly hard because of the new urban demands for foodstuffs. But through it all, he is patient-- gently urging the horse on under the hot noonday sun-- taking time out to repair his implements if they,break down. At last, :ft r a wholesome meal, with the dayfs work finished, he sinks into his dilapidated, but comfortable chair, perhaps to glance over the Fx-lrmors' Gazette . After a few minutes' reading, his heavy eyes begin to droop--cfasing him to retire early, thereby helping to maintain his staunch body. This is the American farmer, the backbone of our nation. The man in the factory is producing our arms The man at the front is defending the homelrnd, but neither can work unless he efts, and it is the Ameri- can farmer who 13 feeding them. Howard Lackman s '44 Z' THE AMERICAN EAGLE I am the American eagle. I stand for justice and democracy. Many men are fighting and dying right this moment for the things for which I stand. You will see my picture on every piece of American currency. I also designate the rank of a colonel in the United Stated Army. Many things are named after me, one of which is the Eagle Squadron,c group of American pilots flying for the Royal Air Force. I am selected asnthe symbol of America because of my bravery,nobility of appearance,and strength. My naturaliubitct is the Rocky Mountains. I am king among birds and among all animals in America. Almost every flagstaff is topped with my image. My picture was on the 1812 National Standard. Many battles have been fought to uphold my glory. Brave heroes such as Ser- geant York and Theodore Roosevelt have become famous fighting for me. As for my own life, it is quite lonely. Certainly there is no more desolate section of our country than the Rockies. I am very different from other birds. While some birds fight, I hold myself aloof except for defense. I eat flesh,which is perhaps my only bad char- acteristicgbut then you,yourself,eat cows,lambs, and other animals. I am a large bird,having a Wingspan 1 which enables me to cover the three thousand miles from Maine to California in a flight. My America is the best nation in the world. She has everything that other countries have,p1us demo- cratic ways of her own. Over all this I must watch with myueagle eye.n In my claws I carry the arrows of defense and the laurel of victory. Yes, I am truly a fearless birdgand this is a fearless country.

She is not in the class itself When these perfumes are madeg He that is and doesn't flee Deserves an accolade. When horrid H and putrid S Combine to form a compound The air is dense, the smell intense - We long to hear the bell sound. But when we think of chemistry We rise above such things As odors strong and odors vile Though objections come from kings. nAhal9 we say,uw oh, chemistry, The best of all our courses, From you we could not separate with the pull of fifty horses. Our chemistry has been assailed With gruesome acousationsg Here let me say wefve never had Homicidal contemplations.

If you have, you probably had to wage war against hundreds of garden pests as I have. My two most dangerous enemies are cutworms and crows. The chief delica- sies of cutworms are young peas, beans, and cucum- bers. One night when my peas were about three inches tall the cutworms attacked, killing many plants by eating them through at their bases. The next day I counter-attacked and annihilated about twenty cutworms. This did not oven the score though, so every day I would send out a searching party for them, my five year old sister and I being the searching party. There was not much fighting for a couple of weeks until my young corn was seized by the crow air force. They landed and were just finishing their delicious breakfast when I made my appearance. Although they had powerful numbers they were un- doubtedly frightened to see such a strange foe. They retreated, leaving my cornpatch cornless. It looked as if they had brought spoons and dug holes two inches in diameter at the root of each plant. They had eaten not only the tender green stalks but also the roots. Again there was a period of silence although there was a little fighting between the cutworms and me, the cutworms trying to eat the cucumber and melon plants. During this period I built a scare-crow and had no more trouble with crows. When the tomatoes were full grown, they were sabotaged by a platoon of huge green worms camou- flaged to match the tomatoes' foliage. They were very destructive and chewed scores of branches off before I discovered them. The only thing I could do to destroy them was to pick them off one by one. It took mo some time to capture them all, but I did. 'T'-V--:ax , 1 f I . '. -.1 ,p i ss 'I K K ? I Pa I Q rl S I lr -1 ET L Q' ev g 13,33 -- f'l'i:u I I 1?

I was sure I could overcome this new menace, so I get out my rotenone, poison dust for bugs, and dusted my beans. I thought I had killed them, but they had scurried beneath the leaves, the only place I didn't dust. A few days later they were chewing the leaves again. This time I dusted the bottoms of the leaves, the tops, and the ground around the plants. I had conquered another menace. My allies, the birds, were not at peace, for they had eaten more of my enemies than I had killed by 'modernn methods. ' Wise men say you learn by experience. I cer- tainly must be well qualified to conquer any army of garden pests that may descend upon my victory garden. Larry Freeman - '46 THE AUTOBIOGRLPHY OF A JEEP Before I was born I was way down in the earth. One day I heard voices. A shovel picked me up, threw me into a little car, and carried me into the broad daylight. I was later transferred into a Ranger car that carried me to the city. I was then put into a very hot furnace, There I was melted into a liquid. I was poured into moulds and then shipped to another factory where I was made into parts and shipped to an assembly plant. There I was put together. At last I was born! I was greased and had tires put on me. Then I got some water which I had tasted before. They gave me a delicious drink which I found out was called gasoline. Most imp- ortant was my tost drive. I passed that perfectly. Then I was put on a boat bound for North Africa.

How And And For How IFIIH often have I looked around seen the autumn trees, wished to thank the Lord above beauties such as these? often have I felt the pain Of gnawing hunger stilled, When God provided food for me And I was quickly filled? There have been many times, I know, When I have felt quito sadg And just a hurried thought of God Would make me feel so glad. You're always sure to find a friend In your good Lord aboveg Worship,serve,and pray with Him And Cat's eyes That dance Reflecting Arise when honor Him with love.

So clear but merciless they seem to me, As ocean depth on cloudy winter day. 3 No mortal may into them clearly see Opaque,gray-green,and always far away. What dost thou hold within thy lucid depths-- Within those lamps so distant -- inhumane? Dost thou too think of world that step by step Builds up itself and then becomes insane? If thou thinkst this,as I have long believed, Thou art more human than I first perceived. Carolyn Bushell '43 Grand Pre It was dusk in tho small village of Grand Pri. The sun had just disappeared and the moon had not yet risen. An ox-drawn cart came slowly down the road, stirring up the dust so that it made small clouds around the wheels. A farmer returning from the fields was the only occupant while a dog, quiet and subdued from his long day in the fields with the sheep, ran alongside. Just off the road in front of the inn, sat a group of old men discussing this year's crops while they smoked their pipes. A little way off, ten or twelve children were grouped around a young man who was playing a violin. Many of the town wives sat outside their doors, listening to tho music while they sewod. Several chickens and turkeys strutted across the road, screeching at each other as they moved out of the way of the ox-cart. The houses were set just off the road with a comfortable space between. The town numbered about two hundred in all, but the village consisted of less than seventy houses as the figure of two hundred inhabitants included the children. The buildings were practically all the same size, but there was something different about each so that no two were alike. Most of the homes had either wells or pumps close behind them, with small barns farther back. The insides of the houses were kept spotlessly clean. The hum of voices grew louder and louder, as the men of the village, returning from the fields, drew near. Finally they appeared in the bend of the road and with cries of joy and excitement the children ran to meet their fathers and then ran back to the houses to help their mothers while their fathers washed up. The dinner was simple, but very nourishing, and they ate well. On the whole they led happy, wholesome lives. Thomas Barrow - Grade VIII PROCRASTINATION Have you ever tried to compel a keen and resourceful youngster to be in bed at a certain hour? It is a task. Every time I take care of Patricia Rowe, a ten year old master in the art of procrastination, I am forced to face this problem. Promptly at 8:45 I announce, UPat, it's time for bed.U Promptly I receive the reply, WUh, just let me hear the end of 'Truth or Consequence'.W It is not necessary for her to be in bed until 9:00 so I allow her to hear the end of the program. As the last second of the advertising is completed, I rise from my armchair, switch off the radio, and tell her, WOkey, up you go.H A grunt is the answer. Five minutes tick off on the clock, during which Pat feigns interest in Dorothy Dix and Elsie Robinson, and re-reads the advertisements. She eyes me slyly and queries WAren't these shoes awful cute?H Thus she hopes to inveigle me into conversing about clothinq, a topic which is good for at least ten minutes. I terminate the dis- cussion there. By this time it is 9:15 and my patience is wearing a little thin. npatln HWhat?U HYou know what.W WHunh?U - this innocently. WUpstairs, P.D.Q.N UWhat's P.D.Q.?U UPretty darn quick, and I mean it.N So Pat sluggishly mounts the stairsg five minutes later I follow and find her freckled nose deep in a NNancy Drewn mystery book. HPatricia Roweln HI was just finishing this chapter,N she apologizes, WI've only got a few pages to go.U UPut it away. Did you brush your teeth and wash?N WNot yet,W she says humbly. UGO do it.n This is accomplished after a good bit of dawdling over toilet articles, and she is finally in bed. The time? 9:25 I reach for the light button, snap it off, turn to go out,,and a voice from the bed says dubiously,nRead me the rest of the ehapter?n I acquiesce, and suffer with the heroine while she is shot at, gets shut in a subterranean passage, and is accused lfalsely, of coursel of kidnapping. Then.1nere comes the inevitable drink. After this, I return down the stairs, exasperated, muttering in my beard, and with a better understanding of Why Mothers Get Gray. Carolyn Bushell !43 BRITISH.NIGHTMARE Ten o'clock and so far there has been no air raid alarm. Is it possible that the Germans are net going to bomb us tonight? My mother, lying there in the cor- ner, suffering from serious shrapnel she received only last night in the three hour raid, is calling for my father, He is off somewhere fighting the Germans, per- haps in Africag perhaps even here in England. We have not heard from him for over four months. Mother is still more delirious. Now she seems to be recalling old days when she and my father went to Paris for their honeymoon, and that long trip on the continent just when Hitler was coming into power. I can't quite make out her words. They are fast and incoherent. She is recalling the good old days in Ger- many when people spoke as they desired, and sang with each other over a friendly stein of beer. But the lights of these days were suddenly put out by Hitler and his new form of government. Mother is becoming more restless. It is getting later. Are the Germans- ------ --?

That afternoon he was skip- ping happily home from school when the planes roared overhead and the mechanized soldiers tramped through the small town. He stood when he first observed the conquerors. With a stra1ght,dotermined countenance he watched the Germans approaching the spot where he stood. Ono of the band shouted at him to remove himself from their path and with a bold gesture attempted to execute the movement if the small boy would not do it himself. Since Little Jackie did not stir an inch the burly German hit him a stinging blow on the head, felling the boy. Jackie rose slow- ly and stood his ground. The band of Nazis mocked him,but the boy faced them calmly. Like a true sol- dier he dared the enemy to hit him again. The German turned scornfully on his heel. From this moment on the Nazi was Little Jackie's personal enemy, For two years the freedom-loving awaited the chance to get his revenge on the man who had mocked him. It was the eve of Christmas when he determined to fulfill his solemn oath. The townspeople were celebrating Christmas when the orders came to stop the merrymaking. . Hastily dressing,Jackie hurried past his mother's door and slipped out of the house. All along the stree sentinels had been posted,so he crept along the dark alleys. when at last he had arrived at his destination, he crawled on his hands and knees to a large house where he knew the enemy was stationed. The youth lured away the guards who were on watch in front of the house by setting fire to the woods surround- ing the building. Qhickly he entered the front door and hid in one of the alooves in the huge hallway. Presently three men, not entirely sober,stag- gered through the hall and entered a room not fifty feet from the boy. Among them he observed one to be his rival. He took careful account of his surroundings and noticed that in the room which the officers had entered there was another small room in which he hoped to trap the two companions of the Ger- man. ? ts He then boldly knocked at the door. It was flung open, and when Jaekies foe saw him,he ordered the two officers to chase and capture Jackie. With a slight advantage of time, Jackie dashed into the room and bolted the door. Then he unlocked the door which led to the large room in which sat his enemy. Next he opened the door of the room and looked straight into the face of the amazed officer. Before the Nazi could draw a revolver from the desk drawer,Jackie whipped out a knife and with deadly accuracy aimed at his hater. The German fell dead. Jackie hurriedly f1ed,but cast one glance at his recent victim,a glance which cost him his life. While running through' the halls,he was confronted by the two who had been ordered to search for him Jackie fell under a deadly bullets. When he was turned over a note was found on him declaring his hatred for the Nazis and,in particular, the one whom he had just murdered. His last words were,nI have only done what many more like me would have done. Hitler, we will drive you out of our once beautiful landgl have died for a cause for which people shall fight until every last one of us per- ishes from the earth. But, Mr. Hitler, WE WILL NOT PERISHIN James Hershman Grade VII PROUD APOLOGY In April the skylight room became the site of a battle undertaken and waged intermittently on holidays and Saturdays, and in study periods. It was here that Miss Stewart and Bill Duffy culled and discarded for the literary section. After each page received their considered O.K., it fell into the hands of Miss Andrews, Carolyn BushelL or Hudas Schwartz,who cut the stencils. How much nail polish was chipped and how much patch was wasted! How thrilling the discovery that the inverted Spanish question mark can be scratched in with a safety pint The perfected stencils were then turned over to Bettie Barnes, Lewis Rashmir, David Miller, Howard Nielson, and Fred Colburn,who operated the mimeograph machine From the Junior Class we had another assistant, Joan Kelly, who gave time and energy to every kind of odd job. We shall not go into detail about the inky smudges and the weight lost in climbing the back stairs. We leave that to the Junior Class. May they have as much fun as we did. of a PROUD APOLOGY In April the skylight room became the site battle undertaken and waged intermittently on holidays and Saturdays, and in study periods.
